I had the USA made steel Weaver scope on there refurbished so I know it will be good. Fancy rings. Only con: There is a tiny piece of wood missing by the tang of the butt stock. See picture What do you think? Eleven pictures total coming.

Even though Bishop supplied the wood on these, so far the one's I've seen were to JM spec.'s thus limiting "resto mods" , purty sure the Col.'s bible says Bishop supplied wood, not stocks.. I could make that chip disappear, so if you have a local wood guy worth his salt, should be no issue. America is (supposed to be) a Republic, NOT a democracy. Learn the difference, help end the lie. Fear a government that fears your guns.

Bishop, like Fajen was a supplier of semi-inletted stocks. I think they did some finish work as well. Ya gotta be "long in the tooth" to remember such. You probably too young. I'd relieve the metal to wood contact to prevent further chipping and would glass as posted earlier with Acraglas Gel colored to match the wood. DF

A Savage 99R was $116.75 in this issue. Admittedly $20,00 was a good amount of money in 1958. Here is a better scan of the cheek piece. Slim
